If you have stuff using Arial, yes. So you suggest every component doing anything with fonts (so everything except Base recommend it)? Will think about it: if we did it it probably should be -core recommending it (as it does all the font stuff.) > Installing just the components and not the metapackage > (and, I presume, not the ttf-liberation fonts or whatever Yes, but doing that should be done by people who know what they do. > the package is in experimental) leads to the following > situation: > > Opening a .doc document made in MS Word displays > fine on the screen, but exporting to PDF or > printing results in display of only the bolded or italic > or otherwise changed fonts.

The original idea why this is in the metapackage is that the metapackage is supposed to install everything LO ships in their upstream distribution if possible. That also includes fonts. (So liberation, Devaju, Gentium..) I didn't update that list for longer, though... Regards, Rene -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
